Click on any of the links above or here to be taken to her blog right after you finish reading her fantastic post on her style icon, Gossip Girls resident socialite, Blair Waldorf!

Many, many thanks to Metropolitan Mum!

The beauty of choosing a fictional style icon: not only does my icon come with the breathtakingly good looks of the very real Leighton Meester, but also her style is always unfaultable, impeccable, flawless.

Bonjour, Lily! Thank you for coming to visit my wannabe glamour blog!!! Your blog here is just chic and stunning and that young beauty you are featuring is so wonderful! My style icon is Audrey Hepburn; she fits my style. I have dark hair, rather slight, but what connects me with her is the classic black style that exudes confidence, poise and a "throw on anything and look great" look. Also, I like what you said above how this young lady has a preppy style, sexy but never vulgar. I think that is so important; who doesn't want to be attractive and sexy, but when it is done with undertones and grace, you are timeless, no matter what age...and that is getting more important, since I am 52 today!

I secretly watch GG just to have a bit of fashion eye candy, and you hit the nail on the head with your parting comment.....Blair Waldorf is the mean girl I sometimes wish I had in me........ me too darling, me too.

Ahh, absolutely divine!! I wish I could be as polished and pulled together as the beautiful but mean Blair Waldorf when I was that age, let alone now that I am older. Oh, the magic of television. Wouldn't it be great to have your own personal stylist AND hair and makeup people???? Of course, being a socialite helps!!Thanks for showing such great stylish photos!Have a wonderful weekend!!XoXoGail
